Aaron Idol is a Canadian professional wrestler who is best known for his work in Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling, where he rose to become the ECCW Heavyweight Champion.
Idol trained at the ECCW training facility House of Pain by current ECCW roster mate and star Chance Beckett. He then made his debut on March 18, 2001, against Gorilla Magilla.
Idol competed in the 2005 Pacific Cup. He defeated Memphis Raines in the first round of the tournament. He went on to defeat J. J. Perez in the semi-finals. Idol emerged victorious in the finals on day two of the 2005 Pacific Cup, which was held on April 23, 2005. He defeated Puma and "The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson in a triple threat match that lasted 30 minutes. After the match, Danielson proceeded to smash the Pacific Cup and claimed that ECCW was inferior to New Japan Pro Wrestling. Puma and Danielson proceeded to beat down Idol. ECCW promoter Dave Republic then issued a challenge and gave Antonio Inoki 30 days to respond. Inoki did not respond and the challenge was dropped as a result.
Winning the 2005 Pacific Cup took his career to next level. On June 24, 2005, Idol challenged for the NWA Pacific Northwest Junior Heavyweight Championship. He defeated Memphis Raines and former trainer Chance Beckett in a Triple Threat Match to become the new champion.
He challenged Scotty Mac for the NWA Canadian Junior Heavyweight Championship on October 21, 2005. He defeated then champion Scotty Mac in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia. On March 11, 2006 Idol vacated the title to concentrate on the ECCW Heavyweight Championship.
Idol challenged for the ECCW Heavyweight Champion on many occasions, but was unsuccessful. He then got the win he was looking for; he defeated Randy Tyler in a Steel Cage Match on June 22, 2007 in Surrey, British Columbia. Idol forfeited the ECCW Heavyweight Championship to Scotty Mac on December 28, 2007, due to a shoulder injury.
